Liverpool Lead Premier League By Eight Points

Big win against City at Anfield strengthens title challenge

Liverpool's lead at the top of the Premier League is 8 points after 12 games.

The Reds beat defending champions Manchester City 3-1 at Anfield.

Fabinho, Mo Salah and Sadio Mane scored the goals.

Liverpool are now odds on favourites to win the League for the first time in 30 years. 

 

Marcus Rashford was among the scorers as Manchester United defeated Brighton 3-1 at Old Trafford.

That result sends United up to seventh in the table.

Brighton's Aaron Connolly will have a scan on a groin injury which will confirm his availability for the Republic of Ireland's friendly against New Zealand on Thursday and the Euro 2020 qualifier against Denmark next Monday.


Elsewhere in the Premier League yesterday, Wolves beat Aston Villa 2-1.
